Bridging the Pearl River. Over and under the delta
This ambitious construction project in China connects three major cities (Hong Kong, Macau and Zhuhai) on the Pearl River Delta. The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge (HZMB) includes three cable bridges and a tunnel – similar to the Channel Tunnel between England and France – that takes commuters below the delta’s waters. The HZMB is currently the world’s longest sea-crossing bridge, with a combined length of more than 34 miles. Originally set to open in 2016, it was finally completed and open to traffic in October 2018. Would you take a ride through the tunnel under the waters of the Pearl River Delta?
